Following the original thread, I want to revisit this topic as I'm working on a how-to guide for using LDCad (and other LDraw utilities) under Wine. I would love to know what experiences some of you have had.

Here's what I have successfully running:

• OS 10.14.6 Mojave on a 2012 Intel MacBook
  
• Wine (stable) 4.0.3
  
• XQuartz 2.7.9 (required dependency)
  

• LDCad (flawlessly)
  
• LDDP (good, one minor window management issue)
  
• DATHeader (fine, a little jaggy-looking)
  
• Img4Dat (usable, some wonky GUI issues)
  
• LD Pattern Creator (seems fine, but I really haven't tested it)
  
• MPDCenter (fairly good, also jaggy-looking, glitchy in general)
  
• LDView (nope, it doesn't render anything in the viewport)
  

Hi, I rendered theses part with Pov ray today and it seems that the line :

The Getting Started page for Mac has been revised and updated, with instructions for downloading and installing the LDraw library as well as LeoCAD (now that it's the most current Mac-native editor).

Some mention is made of the ability to run non-native programs on the Mac. Instructions for setting up LDCad under Wine will be forthcoming. (I'd be grateful to hear from any users who have tested this setup, especially under Catalina or Big Sur.)

Hello,

Thanks again for creating my previous requested parts.

I'd like to request Friends Bunny 98387 for the next set 3935 in Friends OMR project.

Has anyone created an alphabet/font in LDraw? Thanks.

1. Does the program indicate anywhere what the filename of the currently selected part or submodel is?
2. Is there a file list somewhere that will allow me to select one or more parts or submodels based on their filename?
3. How do I select the current part or submodel's parent part or submodel?
4. Is there a way to decrease the font size of the GUI elements? Can I change the font itself to a different one? The default font is very wide.

Thanks.

This page:

https://www.ldraw.org/direct-parts-access

needs a Table Of Contents on the side for "Official Parts" and "Unofficial Parts". I know I have to add anchors but where did you store the template?

Is there a way to "force" LDCad to search for/download unofficial parts while opening a model? Kind of like in LDView?

Hello, I wanted to know if extracting 3d files from LDD db using http://www.digital-bricks.de/en/index.ph...v-uersicht 's converter to create dat files is allowed ?

Hello, I may be wrong, but according to Element image, BL and Rebrickable, this one seems to be a 60581 patterned part, not a 4215 one.
Is there 2 versions ?
